Dream Trainer

One of the no-no's when doing IVF (besides, quelle horreur, no botox, no peels and no Retin A) is exercise. And, as much as I've fantasized about hearing those words during many a grueling workout, they kind of lose their luster after about a week. I especially miss doing my newly discovered, double secret weapon Tracy Anderson DVDs.

Gwyneth Paltrow, the high priestess of prep herself, and Madonna, not so prep but really rad bod, refer to Tracy as their "pint sized miracle worker". And when they can't have her one-on-one they do her DVD's.

My fav is the mat workout DVD which requires a set of 3 lb weights, a chair and just happens to have been filmed in Gwynnie's beautiful Sagaponack home gym. It's sooo tough...And,for that Dancing With the Stars physique minus the tacky sequined getup, Tracy's Dance Cardio workout is aaahamazing...

Insider tip: If you subscribe to Gwyneth's weekly newsletter, Goop, she occasionally shares her personal videos Tracy sends her while she's on the road with Madonna.

Tracy is featured on the April cover of Fitness mag as well as in the April issue of Bazaar!

Moi

I am a tongue-in-cheek bon vivant living in Greenwich, CT with my globe trotting husband Babe and our nutty Himalayans, George and Lolly Rockefeller.
Rendezvous with me, an old school prep, as I juggle aspirations of being on the "Best Dressed Parisienne Gypset List", endless summering, Hermès wish lists, Diet Coke and pretzel lunches, white bikinis, PTH's, sisters, nieces, bff's, all things Lilly, Mrs. Roper and the resurrection of the Jacques Cohen espadrille.
